Samson Flexor (Soroca, Moldavia, 1907 - Sao Paulo, Brazil, 1971)
Est: €6,000 - €8,000
Samson Flexor (Soroca, Moldavia, 1907 - Sao Paulo, Brazil, 1971) Oil on canvas. Signed and dated 1952. 50 x 65,5 cm. Our work is dated the year after Flexor created the first Brazilian abstract art group, the Abstraction Workshop. The artist Samson Flexor is, in fact, considered to be the pioneer of abstractionism in Brazil. Throughout his long and varied artistic career, Flexor developed pictorially in multiple facets, as the Fundación Arte de the Americas explains in their review of the painter, from which we extract the main details of his biography. In the beginning, during his studies in Fine Arts at the Academie Royale de Beaux-Arts (Belgium), later at the École Nationale des Beaux-Arts in Paris with Lucien Simon, and also at the Academie Ranson with Roger Bissiere, he painted in a figurative style and was influenced by the Parisian avant-gardistes. Later, while fleeing to Brazil due to his links with the French Resistance during World War II, he became interested in painting with a religious theme, which he never gave up and to which he always returned in one way or another. After returning to Paris in 1945, geometry, colour and light captured Flexor's attention and joined the tropical elements he had soaked up on his trip to Brazil, where he would return in 1948 and where he would exhibit "at the MAM in Sao Paulo in 1949 and then at the First São Paulo Biennial, in 1951”. With this first abandonment of figurative art and influenced by the director of the MAM Leon Degand, “he began to consider more and more that painting should express itself, defending abstract art against what [he] called a copy of nature”, except for his religious paintings, which were clearly influenced by the figurative. In fact, in 1951, a year before the creation of our work, clearly in his most abstract stage, he founded "the first abstract art group in Brazil, the Abstraction Workshop, a space for the development of a calculated ordering of the shapes and colours. Continuing with his journey through various artistic expressions, highlights were the paintings he made between 1945 and 1951 in the Church of Our Lady of Fatima of Brazil; the exhibition in New York in 1956, where we see a more lyrical art; or the publication in the magazine “Habitat” of his most extensive artistic manifesto “Considerations on abstract art” (1957); as well as the fresco work for the Church Our Lady of Perpetual Help; and a retrospective exhibition organized in 1963 at the Galerie Georges Bongers in Paris (with one of his works currently in the Museum of Modern Art in France). Finally, in the 1960s, Flexor returned to figurative art with its new phase that he himself calls Polarization of the abstract figuratism, “he meditates on the human being and his destructive world [and] begins to disintegrate the figures on a white background, aware of the proximity of his own death”, in São Paulo, 1971.
